Hi All,

I was wondering how you all are managing your windows 10 in-place upgrades? 
Currently I am using the task sequence from 
this<http://blogs.technet.com/b/configmgrteam/archive/2015/06/16/revised-content-for-the-win10-in-place-upgrade-via-task-sequence-for-configmgr.aspx>
 site as a reference.
It will use the setup.exe from the windows 10 media to launch the upgrade and 
keep all files/programs and settings.
I have made some adjustments in the task sequence to take care of the following:

-          Run a command line dpinst.exe with driver packages to install 
windows 10 drivers based on wmi hardware query after the restart

-          Install applications like office 2016.

-          Run a powershell script to refresh the update compliance state. I 
have done this so that after the upgrade the end user will nog get prompted to 
install old updates of windows 8.1 or office 2013.

-          Force a software update scan cycle.

-          Run a command line which basically runs the disk cleanup utility 
(cleanmgr) to clean out the windows.old folder. This is something I coded in 
auto-it since there are 2 prompts which needs a click on "yes". (Yes I know 
that it can also be done in powershell) :)

-          Run a command to disable the hibernation file.
Thanks basically it. What I'm looking for is to get this upgrade process a 
little bit more user friendly. Currently after the upgrade, windows will come 
in the upgrade screen with the circle and will stay at showing 100% for quite 
some time since a lot of tasks are running in the background. I would like it 
to actually show something like the normal task sequence message box like in a 
normal UDI based deployment. Now, if an application requires a reboot it will 
reboot and come back to the normal logon screen and will continue the task 
sequence after the user logs in. I would like to avoid that. My other task 
sequence with UDI will actually logon automatically using the sytem account and 
continue the task sequence.
Does anyone know how I can achieve that?

Thanks!

Best regards,

Sander
